Dentures

Dentures are removable dental appliances used to replace missing teeth. They are designed to look, feel, and function just like your natural teeth. There are two main types of dentures:

• Complete dentures: Replace an entire set of teeth on the upper or lower jaw.
• Partial dentures: Replace a few missing teeth and are designed to fit around your existing natural teeth.

Modern dentures are crafted from advanced materials, including acrylic and porcelain, providing a natural appearance and durable functionality.

Dentures are a reliable and cost-effective solution for tooth loss, significantly improving your quality of life. Here’s why patients love them:

Key benefits:

• Natural-looking smile – Custom dentures are carefully designed to match the shape and colour of your natural teeth, ensuring your smile looks beautiful and authentic.
• Improved function – Dentures restore the ability to chew and speak clearly, making it easier to eat your favourite foods and hold conversations.
• Enhanced comfort – Our dentures are tailored for the perfect fit, providing a comfortable and secure fit that won’t cause discomfort or irritation.
• Durability – Made from long-lasting materials, modern dentures are designed to withstand the test of time, providing years of reliable use.
• Non-invasive – Dentures are a non-invasive option for tooth replacement, meaning you don’t need surgery to get your smile back.
• Improved self-confidence – Having a complete smile can restore your confidence, allowing you to enjoy social situations and feel great about your appearance.

Getting dentures is a personalised experience. We work closely with you to create a solution that looks and feels right for you. Here’s what you can expect:

Step 1: Consultation and assessment.

We’ll start with an in-depth consultation to assess your needs, whether you’re replacing a few teeth or require a complete set of dentures. We’ll discuss your preferences and design a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

Step 2: Impressions and custom design.

Next, we’ll take detailed impressions of your mouth to ensure the most excellent possible fit for your dentures. Using this information, we create your custom dentures, paying close attention to the size, shape, and colour of your teeth to ensure a natural look.

Step 3: Fitting and adjustment.

When your dentures are ready, we’ll fit them in your mouth and make any necessary adjustments to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. We may ask you to wear them for a short time to ensure the fit is perfect before you leave the office.

Step 4: Follow-up appointments.

After your initial fitting, we’ll schedule follow-up visits to ensure your dentures remain comfortable and functional. If necessary, we’ll make any adjustments to ensure a better fit.

Taking good care of your dentures is crucial to maintaining their optimal condition for years to come. Here are some simple tips for keeping your dentures:

• Clean your dentures daily with a soft brush to remove food particles and plaque.
• Remove your dentures at night to give your gums a break and soak them in a denture cleaning solution.
• Avoid using abrasive cleaning products or toothpaste, which can damage your dentures.
• Keep your dentures moist when they’re not in use to prevent them from drying out and losing their shape.
• Regular dental visits are essential to check the fit of your dentures and ensure the health of your gums.
